In the development of the new episode of the movie "My Father, the Remaining Person", there are many notable details.
Among them, there is the story of Mr. Binh and the dialogue between mother and child Lien.
Since Mr. Binh ( Meritorious Artist Thai Son) was diagnosed with pre-existing kidney failure, the whole family has fallen into a state of high stress. Although there is no official conclusion, his beloved people - Nguyen, Viet, Mr. Chinh and Quyen are all ready to think about the most serious options, including kidney donation.
The situation reached a climax when Lien (Thu Quynh) Nguyen's mother strongly opposed her son's kidney donation to Mr. Binh. With a voice filled with fear and tears, she shared the pain she experienced when losing her two children, now only Nguyen is the only support to survive. For Lien, Nguyen cutting off a part of his body even out of gratitude is unacceptable.
Lien's argument is not unreasonable, but it is the way of absolutely protecting children that has turned love into a chain, stifling Nguyen's right to love and sacrifice.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Binh accidentally heard the controversy between Lien and his relatives. Feeling the pain and suffering that everyone was suffering just for him, he chose to quietly leave the hospital, carrying all the pain, inferiority and faith that seemed to be breaking.
Mr. Binh's departure was not a sign of weakness or despair, but a silent, self-respecting resistance. He did not want to be a burden, did not want anyone to sacrifice for him. Mr. Chinh, Viet, and Nguyen are all willing to donate their kidneys, but he understands that to save him, there will be others who will have to sacrifice the rest of their lives. That is something that a father, a person who has lived his whole life for others, cannot accept.
However, this situation caused controversy with the audience. Viewers divided into 2 opinions. Some objected, saying that Lien was selfish, always liked to control his son Nguyen and imposed everything on Nguyen.
The audience also thought that instead of strongly protesting, Lien should have a gentle conversation, analyzing the benefits and disadvantages of donating organs to Mr. Binh so that Nguyen could understand and decide.
On the contrary, others defended Lien, saying that as a mother, her reaction was not wrong. Because as a mother who lost her child, Lien was very afraid that something wrong would happen to Nguyen. If Nguyen had any problems, Lien would have to worry all his life.
From this detail of "My father, the one who stays", the crew pushed the drama about Lien's mother-child relationship and family responsibilities. Everyone has their own reasons, but perhaps in this scene, Lien deserves sympathy rather than being blamed.
